Load Image Based On Cell Value

Aug 21, 2006

How do I load an image based on the cellref value already in the sheet? I have pictures in a worksheet labelled picture 1,picture 2. If Cell A1 = 1 I want it have picture 1 loaded in that cell. if cell a2 = 2 load picture 2 in that cell. also if changes to =2 replace picture1 in a1 with picture2.

Running a macro that would insert product images in to a sheet based on a SKU that is in a different column. My sheet has an image in Cell A3 based on the SKU code that is inputted in to D3. All of my images are stored in F:Images I will have about 500 SKU's that all need images and will be named the same as the SKU I enter in to Column D.

Step1: Type the picture name that is store somewhere in the computer (C:/MyDocument/Pics)Step2: After typing the pic name into the cell, the pic that is the same name as the cell text will be display (Type "apple" and the other cell load out the apple pic that is stored)

Is there a way to have image box display an image with a name matching data from a cell? example: if I type "hello" in cell a1, Image box will load image named "hello". And display new images by changing the name in cell a1. Note: the images will be located in a permanent folder.

I have two bitmap images, and I would like to show only one image at a time, based on the content of another cell's pull-down list. If the user selects "AIR", then display the AIR image. If the user selects "SERVO", then display the SERVO image.

Question: I would like to have two pictures (one in cell B2, the other in cells D1-C10 to I10) display based on a data validation list that I have in A1. So, for example, if you click U.S.A., two pictures for U.S.A. show up; if you scroll down to Canada, two pictures show up. If you're interested, I have included the history of what I have tried in the past.

History of what I have tried:

I used this code before [url] , but that makes all pictures but 1 invisible and I need two.

I have a spreadsheet with two bitmap images inserted into it. In cell E2, I will enter a number, either a 1 or a 2. if I enter a 1, I want only the first image to be visible. If I enter a 2, I only want the second image to be visible. Is there a way to accomplish this (hopefully without the need for macros)? I've attached a spreadsheet as an example of what I'm trying to do. Also, note that I'd like the images to be stacked on top of each other so that they show up in the same place regardless of wether there's a 1 or a 2 in cell E5

I have found Displaying an image based on text contained within a cell. which appears to be a very similar question, but no steps to follow.

Basically I have a folder with around 300 images in it, each is called ProductId number.jpgeg Z99S1234567.jpg

In my sheet I am using the same ProductId number and would like to display the product image on the sheet. I have A1:D19 as spare space Lookig at the info I have found the image will have to go into a cell, so can I break all the rules and merge cells to fit the image in, or do I need to make a single cell big enough or can I use VBA to import the image somehow to a specific place on the sheet.

I'm trying to display a different image based on the contents of a cell. For example if cell A1 = "Gerrard" I would then like to display a picture of Steven Gerarrd. Is this possible? If so can anyone give me a steer in how I might acheive this.

I need to link an image to a cell value and display the selected image in a new sheet of the same excel. I am attaching samplefile for easy reference. The requirement is, from the workout sheet when I select from drop down list, then the corresponding cell value appears in Parameter sheet in C9 cell.

There are four images copied in Parameter excel. The given image has to be selected and linked to the C9 cell value. Based on the selection that particular image should be shown on Sample Picture sheet. Here based on the selection only the image should reflect here.

I'm looking for vba code to use that will incrementally rotate an image based on values entered within a cell of an Excel spreadsheet.

I have two graphics, one is the face of a dial and the other is the pointer very much like a speedometer. I can achieve the desired outcome using two excel charts, one overlaid on top of the other, but, this doesn't give me the visual effect I'm looking for.

I'm using the face of the semicircle dial as the background image and I have a separate image for the pointer. When a value between 1 and 100 is entered in cell O3 i would like the pointer to rotate to that position on the dial. The pointer is to have a fixed position and arc left to right where the value of 1 is left-most and horizontally aligned, and for the value 100 the pointer would point in the opposite direction.

I am looking for a way to take the picture name associated with an image ie: (picture 571) and place that picture name in the cell next to the image.

I can see the picture name - it registers in the top left box that usually indicates the cell the cursor is on... and I could manually type that name next to each image.

However my spreadsheet has several thousand rows- each with several columns of information and an image..

I am looking for a way "formula?" to automatically read the image in cell J4 and populate cell K4 with the image name... and so on.

The reason for my request... is I am importing products into a web based shopping cart... to do so I have to export the products to a csv and import that csv into the shopping cart. The process of exporting to a csv- strips away all the images and leaves just data.

I found that I can save the document as an html and that process creates a folder with all the images- saved as (picture 571.jpg) if the resulting csv had the image name... the shopping cart would then look for that image name in my image file and it would populate into the shopping cart appropriately.

This seemed on it's face like a really simple thing to do, I have plenty experience with excel & I thought I'd be able to make cell k4= j4 and tada it would glean the image name & I could simply copy that formula all the way down the sheet & it would be done... but I just cant find the magic button that freely gives up the image name...

I need to do a macro that will open a search window, the user would select a folder and it will search for a .csv file within it. Then after locating the file, it would automatically load it into a specific sheet in the workbook.

Programming Excel VBA Macro to do OCR (text recognition) from a prt scr screen capture image and input the text into cells. Currently my Excel file has a push-button, and upon clicking on it the macro pastes into Excel the current clipboard image I have created by pressing prt scr while in another program. The macro then crops the image to the region with the applicable text. I have to then manually type the text I see in image format into the appropriate cells.

the VBA coding to automate this? I'd like it to use the clipboard image and run it through OneNote OCR, after which the applicable text values are automatically entered into the cells. Ideally the code will first crop to the region with the desired text before it does OCR. If this is not feasible, it will need to incorporate a method (keyword search?) to hone in on the desired text after the entire prt scr image has been OCRed.

MS Word allows a person to turn off email addresses so that you have to press the Ctrl key then left click the mouse. This makes sure that every time a person touches a cell that it does not automatically load that address into Outlook. Is the same possible in Excel 2003?

My workbook simply has multiple columns of data which will be summarized visually in a tag cloud (I have the tag cloud part taken care of already creating either a jpg or png, I simply have to change the extension within a batch file to change between picture formats)

I need to have the tag cloud image display and update depending on which column the user would like to summarize (for now I have simplified the issue by only having one of the data columns in my workbook, and will worry about the user selection of the data column to be summarized later).

My Main Question:

Focusing on the image display and updating now, whether it be an ActiveX Image Control or any other way. I've been playing around manually before I try and code it and I can not get either a jpg or png file to attach to the ActiveX control (both of which cause an Invalid Picture Message).

The file name can stay the same if need be and for now I think/assume that'd be easiest (I have my Tag cloud generator just replacing the previously existing image file of the same name).

Would ActiveX control be the way to go for this dynamically changing image?

I have a number of image controls on a user form, each being loaded with an image from file.

Image1 being loaded with a picture of a bus image2 being loaded with a picture of a school

And so on

Now what I am trying to do is when that image is clicked the name of that image is passed to a textbox

So the action would be

1 image of bus loaded into image control1 , the name of that image being bus.jpg2 image is clicked3 the name bus.jpg appears in a text box

Here is what I have so far

Code:

Private Sub Image1_Click()DataInput.TextBoxItem.Value = bus.jpg

DataInput.TextBoxItem.Value= Image1.Name - this does not work

End Sub

Which works but as you can see this is static, as I have supplied the value , were as I would like the clicking action to pick up the name of the jpeg being displayed

So expanding upon this if say image1 is loaded with say a picture of a car instead of a bus

LValue4 = "E:Car.jpg"

Image1.Picture = LoadPicture(LValue4)

Now when it is clicked the name of the image being displayed in image control1 would be Car.jpg

And it is this value I wish to transfer to a text box for now will do more with it later

In addition to this I am not sure if the best idea is to have a number of image controls and load each with an individual picture or have one image control and swap the picture by clicking a command button

I am trying to display an image ("image") on an image control ("Image1") placed in a worksheet ("Sheet1"). The problem is that I want this action to take place when I press a button in a user form. I am trying to use the following code, but it seems that VBA does not recognize the image control ("Image1") in the worksheet.
